Really – eating some things just taken out of the ground ?
Avoid doing it at all cost…even carrots need a
Wash before you start eating them
Reality is – not cooking them – keeps the nutrients
And also the Vitamins and Minerals
While they might taste nicer cooked – they’re better this way
Root Vegetables, need a little preparation
And fruit from the tree can just be picked while ripe
While meat and fish – need some attention from the chef
In response to Fandango’s one word challenge
You knew your nephew wouldn’t eat his greens
every mealtime saw a trip to the bin
but appreciating his happy sweet tooth
you snook something into pudding unseen
and eating with the custard you did grin
as he ate up his carrots with a great big smile
hidden in the sponge cake with sultanas between
and wouldn’t complain about veg – for a while

#Food
a foodie acrostic, by inky
Carefully crafted by cooks of the highest order
A combination of the finest root vegetables , stock and seasoning
Rotating slowly in a silver pan until the
Root veg is just right, you can eat it as it is
Or stick a blender in the pan to make it nice and smooth
To pour into a serving turrine
Salford, 29th December 2017
I knew it was coming – the creation of a masterpiece.
something from the remains of the Christmas feast – to warm everybody up
chef using concoctions to heighten the flavour of the dish
in first went the potatoes (roast and boiled), and then the onion – accompanied by a drop of oil.
then went the parnsip, turnip and swede. followed by the carrots
the meat from the leftovers cubed and joined in the heat by a stock cube
and as you listened to the pan – the contents started to bubble
half way there – and with the turn of the veg – it started to speak
squeaking away with a sizzle
Perhaps you say, it could have magical properties
as the recipe has been passed down the generations for years
notably, it reaches parts your chemists cold cures dont
and it’s tasty to the person that’s eating it
changes to little things like seasonings, are expected through time but
everybody knows the core of chicken, onion and carrot
and mum and dad know – they’ll have empty bowls and seconds asked for
Several chopped carrots danced around
In the silver saucepan as they
Mingled and merged with Vegetable Stock, Onions and Herbs to
Make a most delicious soup, served up that afternoon
Exactly what the doctor ordered – Summat
Really Tasty for lunchtime

Starting off with a Colourful one, taken at a session of the photography group Basic Clicks – Six Colourful Carrots on Blue Canvas!
here’s a couple of interesting Cutlery pieces – the first is of four forks against a wall, – i liked the shadows created in this pic.
Combination of ideas here, with a twist – Spirals of Cutlery , set on canvas.
Still life shot of various vegetables set out on a slate Cheeseboard, some onions (white and red), a tomato, a cut Cabbage and the return of one of those Carrots we saw earlier
Now fellow wordpressors might have seen this one before, but as its cees photochallenge, i thought i’d put it on here – not for the wonderful bridge (that’s the wrong letter folks!!!) but for those fluffy white marshmallow clouds , over looking the quayside at Salford, attached to the Manchester ship Canal.
Last but not least, here’s a close up of a cornflower – i like this one because of the colour!

…Following last weeks close up food shots, we continued the theme with a heap of vegetables to produce some wonderful still life artwork. The vegetables were set on a Square slate and against a marble backdrop
No Auto today! each picture was taken manually – with me setting up angles and close ups of the food stuffs.
Camera used was my able Bridge camera : Sony DSC H-300 with zoom. Great camera with some wonderful zoom functions.
Trio of stews and soups – Cabbage , Onion, Carrot
Three fruits : Avacado, Apple, Lemon

The fussy eater
was caught off guard
by an addition of vegetables
to his favourite pudding
Carrots remained buried
under a mountain of sponge
and mum just smiled
as the kids munched away
What was that yummy stuff
under the sultanas and lashings of custard?
Mother knows what it was
but she’s not telling….
Empty plates all round,
Not a vegetable to be found
And fussy eater wont know
as for another piece he does go….
